Teletoon apparently likes my film ...I hope you do too.

Exciting news folks! My independent student film, "A Romance In Graphite" was selected as one of the finalist films for the Teletoon animation scholarship in the category for most promising student. So, now, I can finally show the world the two minutes of film that took me an entire school year to create... Yaaaays! The film is an integration of 2-D traditional animation with stop-motion animation and is about a pencil who falls in love with its drawing. You can watch my wee little film on the Teletoon website found here under the Finalists tab and in the Most Promising Student category. The website can be mighty slow, so I added a copy of my film right here for you fluid viewing pleasure! Some other great friends of mine from Sheridan have also gotten their films accepted ("Fresh Eggs", "Taste of Glory", "C Block", "Parental Guidance" and "Two by Two") so be sure to check those out as well and vote for your favorite (or vote for mine, whatever makes you happy ;D). Anyways folks, I sure hope you like my attempt at film making and best of luck to all the finalists! WHOO!

Ahhh! Smello!! I LOVED IT! I'm so glad you finally posted it, I've been waiting so anxiously to see it. Ah man, lady. Just... ARG!! Awesome! I love all the mediums you combined. And I can't beleive that is Cliff's voice!!! What the heck? He is just NOT that dignified sounding in real life. Jeepers.hugs!!! Sarah (who forgot her blogger sign in...)ps congrats for the working at House of Cool thing, that's awesome. Are you and Ian both there? do you have frequent 'coffee breaks'?

Hey Mel, it's a great news, that's prove that your work is really good. I have just looked at them all, and drum roller, my vote goes for you. Your character are so alive, it's a great work. Look professionalgood luck

Hello there Melissa,I was at Ottawa and was surprised to see your fine film not awarded something. They made some very weird choices, IMHO. You should enter this in other festivals, I'm sure it will do well!

Hey folks, I just wanted to thank everyone for the kind words about my work and film. I'm so glad so many amazing artists enjoyed it, it makes all the time and effort I put into it all worthwhile. My film didn't end up taking home any prizes in the end, but no worries, it just felt great to have been chosen to be a finalist amongst all the other amazing filmmakers. Thanks again to everybody who watched and/or voted for my film!

Thank you for giving posts and articles were very amazing. I really liked as a part of the article. With a nice and interesting topics. Has helped a lot of people who do not challenge things people should know. You need more publicize this because many people. Who know about it very few people know this. Success for you....!!!
